United States
Message

At Reed Smith, LLP, I conducted document review for complex litigation, regulatory investigations, and internal investigations involving high-volume electronically stored information. I reviewed for relevance, responsiveness, confidentiality, and privilege using Relativity and Everlaw.

I managed legal hold databases and supported compliance by coding and analyzing data in Exterro and Excel. I also reviewed and translated Russian-language documents to identify key issues in a federal criminal prosecution.

Through EDRM's GDPR Project, I collaborated with e-discovery professionals across the United States and Europe on GDPR compliance guidelines and presentations. I reviewed regulatory guidance and drafted guidelines for U.S. practitioners and litigators managing data transfers from Europe.

At the Immigration Law Clinic, University of Pittsburgh School of Law, I represented immigrant clients before Immigration Court and administrative agencies. I drafted and filed legal documents, developed case theory and litigation strategy, and translated Russian evidentiary documents and interpreted for Russian-speaking clients.
